Closet Commie is another euphemism for Leftist, also known as Moderate, Progressive, or Liberal. Sometimes call themselves "New Lefties", but routinely disavow the hard-core Bolsheviks, who were well known for the infamous "Red Terror", consisting of violently attacking religious or patriotic figures, often killing same, destroying property property and causing serious, gratuitous injury, even to innocent bystanders and passersby. Such generally have had positive media coverage and even police and prosecutorial support, though they often attack such authorities violently.
The CNN anchorman was a closet commie; he wouldn't label ANTIFA as terrorists or Leftists themselves.
